Every single soldier who was presented there was taken aback hearing diya's words, all of them exchange glances with each other in a confused manner, they don't understand why diya ask them to open the city gate, no one inside the city was aware that yohan is here apart from diya, she was the only one inside the city who is aware of his presence and she is eager to meet him, a moment later that soldier who tried to speak her earlier clear his throat and gather some courage and confronted diya.
"my lady the city gate is closed for the last two weeks as per the order of the elder lin so we can't open the gate even if you want, it's not like that we disrespect you but things are dangerous outside the city wall, we can't let you go outside alone no matter what your reason is, it's not safe out there, please return to the lin clan manor "the middle age man soldier looked diya and tried to explain her, he was looking worried for her safety despite knowing how capable she is.
